Suspect In Shooting Deaths Of Two California Deputies Moved To El Dorado County Jail
EL DORADO COUNTY (CBS13) — One of the suspects in the deaths of two sheriff's deputies has been moved out to the El Dorado County Jail, the Sacramento County District Attorney's Office said on Wednesday.
Marcelo Marquez was originally housed in the Sacramento County Jail after a crime spree that resulted in the deaths of Sacramento County Sheriff's Deputy Danny Oliver and Placer County Sheriff's Det. Mike Davis, Jr. on Oct. 24.
Sacramento County Sheriff Scott Jones hinted that the move would be coming after Marquez's Oct. 28 hearing.
"I would just as soon our officers and our professional staff not have to look at these two suspects during their criminal trials," he said.
There still is some question as to Marquez's actual name. The defendant told the judge his name was Luis Enrique Monroy Bracamontes. Fingerprint tests are pending.
Marquez and his wife, Janelle Monroy also face the attempted murder of two additional Placer County deputies and the carjacking of another woman.
Monroy remains at the Sacramento County Jail.
